Today I am thankful for my family. Without them I wouldn't be here today. My family is beyond amazing and is the best sounding board and support system that a person could ever need. My family extends beyond my parents and "blood relatives," my family includes so many more. There are people in my life that have chosen to include me in their lives and their families. These people are my friends and my chosen family. This week I got the chance to spend time with my "cousin" and her kids, my "little brother" and "niece," along with my other "little brother". These people are as much of my family as my parents, nieces and blood relatives.
I am thankful for my safety and my freedom. My friends and family that are in and have been in the armed forces who have fought for our freedoms here at home. I just received word today that one of my best friends that is deployed in Afghanistan has returned to his COP with his unit safely and with his unit intact.
I'm thankful for my new husband. He is my support and my best friend, I couldn't ask for more. Well a steady job but hey, a job is a job in this economy! My husband takes care of our dogs day in and out, cleans te house and cooks for me most days. I've been home in Ok for the last week and while I was away he managed to knock quite a few of my honey-do's off the list to surprise me! I was so thankful to come home to a clean house that was still standing and to did all of my pictures hanging on the walls and other artwork on the walls! I could even see the floor in the basement!
There are so many things to be thankful for, these are merely a few!
